Help needed in finding specific formal bow tie

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
I bought a vintage tuxedo on eBay and I was surprised when I found out that it doesn't have plain satin or ribbed lapels. The weave is close to basketweave but it isn't exactly that. Can you name that weave? Material is presumably silk. Please look at the pictures that I attached below to get the idea.

The question is, where can I get a bow tie made of same kind of black silk? Obviously I can't wear the tuxedo before I find a matching bow tie.

Looks like barathea. For example, http://www.crombie.co.uk/black-barathea-bow-tie.html , or Google for more shopping options.
